The person who attended the Wilson Center discussion also said that Deare openly expressed frustration over being cut out of most of the policy discussions about Mexico, saying that members of Trump’s inner circle, including chief strategist Steve Bannon and Trump’s son-in-law and adviser, Jared Kushner, have not consulted with NSC directorates as the White House formulates policy.
Deare has been on the faculty of National Defense University in Washington since 2001. He joined the university’s College of International Security Affairs in 2010 and most recently served as dean of administration.
Deare it is alleged, also made several remarks about how attractive Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, appeared, remarks that some of those present at the meeting described as “awkward.”.
Deare is the second senior NSC official to leave in within the week.
Trump’s national security adviser, retired Gen. Michael Flynn, had resigned on Monday after revelations that he discussed sanctions with a Russian diplomat before Trump was sworn in, then misled Vice President Mike Pence about the nature of those conversations.
